they don't mind deaths: it's the emergencies that might be survivable that are nuisance.

I've come up with a set of rules that describe our reactions to technologies:

Spoiler:

1. Anything that is in the world when you’re born is normal and ordinary and is just a natural part of the way the world works.2. Anything that's invented between when you’re fifteen and thirty-five is new and exciting and revolutionary and you can probably get a career in it.3. Anything invented after you're thirty-five is against the natural order of things.- Douglas Adams

My point is that your referenced article cannot be found. almost......................... like a scam of sorts.

Not good form.

Ethics / Health Checks for Airline PassengersI don't know, but I am guessing that airline companies are not allowed to ask all passengers for health details because that would lead to charging passengers based on their weight. Overweight people would start paying more.

Does anyone think charging obese people more for tickets is not ethical? Don't children and babies get discounts already?

Pias, that's silly. For a start, Occam's Razor goes for the simplest explanation - that you cocked up your keypresses. What possible reason could there be for the FBI (or any other agency, terrestrial or otherwise, dark side of the Moon or not) to want to prevent you from cutting and pasting?

what exactly happened to me ? why did I get a tumor ?hint : it wasn't exposure to sunlight

wire frame glasses with a defective nose pad .punched a hole in my skin .its possible the toxic dust in the air was a factor .but , fact is I never got it treated / fixed - so its my fault .I may be the only person in history -with medical insurance- to allow this to happen .but since Google can't see everything / medical reports :-/

Dude, the original post of your other topic doesn't say what you wrote here, nothing about an injury or exposure to other materials:

psychiatry is a scam wrote:can the constant irritation of wearing glasses ( wire frame ) lead to cancer ?

I do not know if any of that would have contributed, but considering that certain agents can cause a change in the DNA of cells and/or make cells behave abnormally, something other than UV - or a combination of things - might have been involved.

Basal cell carcinoma being the most common form, it's not something one wants to deal with, but it also is nothing "out of the ordinary".

ETA I thought I read you mentioned "nose pad" somewhere in the thread and here is a portion of what you wrote:

You insist on pulling this {!#%@} of out ... thin air ... and want us to take your seriously? That's nuts.

From my experience, the bummer for being on a plane when a person dies, is that the dead person gets to deplane first while you sit and simmer waiting for your turn. At least that is what happened on a flight back to Tokyo.

The diversion for a sick person can be an adventure, since you get to explore an airport, and maybe a city, that wasn`t on your list. Did that one twice.

There are billions of people on this planet. Very many of them wear glasses. There is no plague of BCC. People get BCC in places where there is no regular rubbing going on. Your ability to analyze cause and effect is the subject of this thread.
